Firstly i would like to say, you have filed a wrong case, your wife has not consummated the marriage which itself is a good ground for divorce, do you have proof that your wife has affair, if yes , it will prove adultery again a good ground for divorce, for not appearing in court, file exemption from appearance stating a cogent reason.
What question judge will ask cant be stated like that, usually we tell clients to speak the truth of the incidents on oath.
1. Yes it is mandatory to be present yourself in court as and when court asks for. You would get ex-party decree.
2. You can issue POA to any one of your family members / friends to make attendance on behalf of you.
3. Answering to your Q1/b, it is based on the stage of your case. Better to have a word with your present lawyer.
If you present in the court the court may ask your problems in the marriage.
If she is not appearing after the notices the court may decide case as exparte in your favour.
You may request for excuse from personal appearance.
1. You have to be present as you have instituted the petition.
2. No, petition will be dismissed.
3. Your advocate will handle. He is there to represent on your behalf. Anyhow, speak to him in advance as you have to speak the factum of marriage.
1. A Family Court may mandate your presence before it. If the Court has asked you to remain present before it, there's no fault with this order of the Court.
2. It is not advisable to do so. However, if it is impossible for you to attend the Court on the date next fixed, you may ask your Lawyer to move an application before the Court seeking exemption of your personal appearance.
3. The Court will ask you general questions. Your Lawyer will brief you on this.
It is required to know first, what is the present status of your case, i.e. the next date has been fixed for ex-parte evidence or not. If it is so you need to be present before court and you need to file affidavit-in-chief in writing. So better to take instruction from your learned conducting advocate. For further assistance call me.
1. It has not been informed as to for what reason you have been asked to be present at the Court. For submitting evidence in a case, the plaintiff/applicant shall have to be present before the Judge.
1a. In case you refuse to submit evidence, examination and cross examination before the Court then your suit/application will finally be dismissed on the ground of non prosecution.
1b. The Judge is not expected to ask you any question at this stage. Ask your lawyer the reason for your said physical appearance. If it is for submitting the evidence in chief, then you shall have to be present before the Court personally..
Q1. Is it mandatory to be present myself in court?
Ans. Some times it is necessary if Court needs your personal enquiry by Court.
Q1/a. Can I avoid my attendance to court?
Ans. If you avoid you will not able to know what actually happened in the Court. If you have faith in your advocate then you can.
Q1/b. If I were have to be present on court, then what should be the questions from judge to me?
Ans. Whether you will go for mediation or continue the case, how much maintenance or alimony you will pay, these are the questions.
hi. it is advisable to attend the court hearings.. the court proceedings cannot proceed further without your presence ..
Your attendance on all dates is not necessary. But on important dates presence is secured by the Court. I don't know what is the stage of your case after that only i can tell you what judge will ask you?
Hi
1. Yes you should show your presence in court and put your version in front of Judge.
2. You can avoid your presence in court but you should not avoid....You should get your presence marked.
3. Judge can ask anything, we cannot and should not predict about judge.
Thank You
As per you, the service of your case has not served till date .
If , the summoning address is correct as per your knowledge and information ,then you should approach the court for the service through Affiliation and Publishing as well.
When , court will realize that she is avoiding the court summon willingly, then you will get an ex-parte order on your behalf as prayed in the case.
Now , your questions reply:
1.No,specially during the period of getting her response.
2.You can appear through your advocate i.e.if your advocate pursuing the case ,yours attendance is not necessary in each and every date .
3.Till the time of her appearance , there will be no question from you .You can take a copy of your case from your lawyer for going through the case . Dont confused , court will not ask you out of your filed suit.

Why your lawyer has not filed exparte divorce application till now, you need to be present as you are the aggrieved party. Your case should have been finished till now. Tell your advocate to proceed for exparte divorcr
I thing ur case is running ex-parte and u r asked to present to giving evidence before the Ld. Court. So no worries
1. If your wife is being served the summons but is not filing her reply then apply to the court to strike off her defence.
2. Heed your lawyer if he has asked you to remain present in the court on the next date. The judge may ask you questions related to the case.
1. yes you will have to mark presence before the court, though the same is not mandatory. Ask the lawyer instead to get a paper publication done.
2. Ask your lawyer if you have been summoned or not.
3. If you have been summoned then the court might ask you some question in relation to the dispute, stick to the averments made in the petition.
Regards
